Tickets for two popular Houston baseball events, the Houston College Classic and Astros FanFest, go on sale today. The College Classic is a six-team tournament, held Feb. 9-11 at Minute Maid, and will include hometown teams UH and Rice, as well as Baylor, Arizona State, Vanderbilt, and A&M. All but A&M are ranked among the top 40 college baseball teams, so the tournament should prove to be very interesting. A full schedule of the games can be found on the Astros website, and Houston baseball fans will be disappointed to see that UH and Rice will not go head-to-head in this tournament.
Astros FanFest will be held on Feb. 10-11. A full schedule of FanFest activities has yet to be released, but, according to the Astros website, festivities will include the opportunities to meet Astros players, play interactive baseball games, and participate in baseball clinics.
